In light of all the people on dial-up (may god have mercy on your souls) I will put my time to good use. Too often I see gargatuan sigs ... some of which are 200k+. I can only imagine how someone on a 56k feels trying to navigate the site.

For those of you running pictures in your sig pics feel free to send me a copy of the sig. I will resize the picture for you, keeping the original quality and demensions. If need be I will host it, but I'd like to keep this to a minimum.

We will be implementing some sig size limits pretty soon, so if you need to, take Alan up on this offer.

Dial up owns me.... :(

Just curious: What about my sig? It doesn't take awhile to load, does it?

Edit: I mean, it's not a very large file. Plus, it's cooler than multi-colored tube socks with countless, moth-destroyed holes that happen to smell more like rotten granny smith apples rather than any sort of foot apparel...

:cool:

Okay, Old fashioned. But I liked calling you SmithSR better. :D j/k

So maybe I am not the only one. Makes me feel better. That acceorator I have just pretty much blanks out anything it has to take any real time to load. Great for forums, have to adjust it for pictures and stuff. But it is pretty quick reguardless.
